Tip for those with dial-up service
One of our new members said how much she enjoyed the tutorials that had been posted and it got me to thinking. I have dial-up as I am sure a lot of you do. When I was doing CJ's quilt block tutorials, instead of printing them off to save paper and to free up my phone line, I would go to the post/tutorial (this will work for recipes too) and open as many windows as there are pages to the tutorial.
In each window you open, use it for 1 page of the tutorial (you can't page through it once you sign off line). So if there are 3 pages to the tutorial, open 3 windows and give window #1 > page #1 of the tutorial and so on. Keeping these windows open, sign off line, this frees up your phone line for other things, like emergencies, school or doctor's offices calling you back. But you can still follow along at your own pace.

That's a good idea, Dee. You could also "save as" each page and store them on your computer for later.

You're right Bethany, I didn't even think of that and I save a lot of stuff that way!
